RES: RES: [PHP-INSTALL] Can't enable use_trans_sid

{top posting warning}

I was hoping someone had a clue on this, as it doesn't look like a uncommon
thing.

They only use IE and they won't change that in a near future, it's one
company only but with hundreds of simultaneous users.

I could not reproduce that with Firefox, as it's a random thing I can't tell
for sure if it's a browser thing. 

After much struggling and study, I think I'll just tell them it cannot be
done w/o modifying too much of the app (removing the need of cookies to use
trans_sid).


Thanks a lot for helping!
Thiago

Have your users tried this with another browser, apart from IE, 
such a Firefox or Netscape? If so, do they have the same problem?
